Fall is the ideal time to add plants to the landscape. Milder temperatures, more dependable rainfall and the fact that plants are not putting energy into their top growth, but devoting all their resources to developing a stronger root system, will give them a head start in the spring and a much better survival rate.

Beaver Creek Nursery, East Fork Nursery, Riverdale Nursery, Sunlight Gardens, as well as the UT Arboretum Society, members and friends will be offering quality plants. Will Witte, the Society's "Answer Man" will be there to answer all of your plant questions. Dano's Hot Dogs will also be selling hot dogs and other refreshments.

Proceeds from this and other Society plant sales and other events go to support and secure the future of the UT Arboretum. Credit cards are now accepted for all transactions. For more information on the Plant Sale call (865) 483-3571.
